The soup was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. Otherwise, it was a great recipe.

This soup had an amazing flavor profile! The combination of the sweet kabocha squash and the savory shrimp was perfect. I also loved the addition of the lemongrass and ginger, which gave the soup a really unique flavor.
